A review by ljrinaldi
Maya and the Return of the Godlings by Rena Barron

3.0

Perhaps it is because I didn't read the first book, and get endeared with Maya, but in this second book in the series she is a bit of a pain. I mean, yes, she is saving the world, as young teens are known to do, all the time, but she is just so headstrong, and I suppose that is the thing that makes her special.

In this second book in the series, she has to save her father, who has had his soul stolen frm him by the bad guys.

And let me point out that is actually one thing I do like about this book. When Maya and her friends go into the darkling world, they find that the ordinary people, the ones that aren't trying to kill them, just want to live their life, and are just like them. That people have the same needs weather their leaders are good or evil. They want to live, and love and provide for themselves and their families. Maya thinks of all of them as evil and i shocked by this.

So, if you read the first book, you will probably love this sequel. It looks as though it will at least be a trilogy, as there is more to come.

If you haven't read the first book, this one will e a little hard to get into.



Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.
